User reviews

This Chrome extension is widely appreciated for its robust tab grouping and management features, including saving individual groups, exporting, and easy recovery of tabs. Users find the interface clean and helpful for organizing their browsing sessions. However, there are common requests for improvements such as rule reordering, bulk deleting tab groups, and better clarity in instructions. Occasional freezing and limited browser compatibility were also noted as drawbacks. Overall, it is considered a powerful tool for enhanced tab organization.
Pros
  • Helps in managing and saving tab groups effectively, including the ability to save single tab groups.
  • Offers multiple features beyond basic tab grouping, such as saving, organizing old tab groups, showing tab groups on bookmarks bar for easy access, and exporting groups.
  • Has a nice and clean interface, making it easy to use and useful for recovering tabs.
  • Supports customization options and is highly regarded for functionality related to tab grouping.
  • Allows for snapshotting and restoring tabs/groups to prevent data loss and aid session management.
Cons
  • Lacks the ability to reorder group rules, causing conflicts when tabs fit multiple rules.
  • No feature to delete multiple old tab groups at once, making cleanup tedious.
  • Can freeze occasionally, requiring browser restart.
  • Limited support for other browsers like Opera.
  • Some instructions and features like 'Group rules' are confusing or unclear to new users.

Doesn't seem to work, at least the rules don't.

Would be nice to be able to reorder the rules. Some tabs fit into more than one rule and usually the first rule that matches gets used. But at the moment you can't reorder the rules and therefore not change the behaviour.

你好,能否将自定义个规则的优先级设置的高于自动域名分组? 重要提醒!!!此拓展和chrome最新功能(设置-外观-自动将在任何设备上创建的新标签页分组固定到书签栏)配合时, 时间长了会有特别多的标签页分组, 会导致chrome启动时无响应.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Tab Groups Extension requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
